Hatchet is a wonderful book as is My Side of the Mountain. I would also add another of Jean Craighead George's books, "Julie of the Wolves", another survival story but featuring a girl.
Your idea is exactly right. Parents and all members of the family need to take back the primary...
I was just reading the Stephen King thread, and wondered if any of you read Dean Koontz? Reason I ask, (aside from the fact that I think he's a great writer and I love his books), is, in his most recent book "The Darkest Evening of the Year", there is a quote that really got me. He wrote, as a...
Yep, this is what I came up with. I really appreciate everyone giving their opinion on this. That's the reason for the open-ended question, to get a variety of opinions and see what got suggested the most. Doesn't mean that's what I'll get, but it's a good place to start looking and learning...
Boy, thanks guys, for all the quick replies. Y'all can assume that things are covered in the handgun/shotgun area; but for some reason, I haven't paid much attention to rifles. Want to change that. I'd like to have a well-balanced assortment of tools. I realize that most of us can't own the...
Mornin' everybody. I don't post much here at Rifle Country, but I read stuff here often. I would like to know your opinions on the 3 (or 4, maybe 5) most useful rifles. For a rural setting, some hunting, varmint protection, defense of the place.
If this has been discussed ad nauseum...
Thanks guys for all the replies. Guess I'll be calling Springfield. Glad to hear that they have great customer service; I haven't needed it so far.
Thanks again.
My SA Loaded's night sights seem to be a lot fainter than they used to be. The rear ones are faint, and the front one isn't really visible. I had a friend look at them too, just to make sure it wasn't my old eyes getting worse. She couldn't see the front sight either.
I bought the gun new...
I guess I meant to word my question, have they endorsed a Republican candidate for the primary? But I can see why they would wait, as you said TexasRifleman. I keep hearing on the news different people and organizations giving their endorsement to different people, on both sides, but they are...
Anygun,
I think you and I have misunderstood one another. I have and will again dispatched coyotes and various other varmit-type animals in order to take care of what's mine and in my care. I do not hunt at present because I prefer beef and chicken to venison, although if the day comes when...
Do you mean if a kitten, puppy, deer, or little dove is posing a threat? Is it just me? I don't understand this statement. I'm sorry, but I don't get what killing innocent animals has to do with whether or not a person can defend self or loved ones?
Do I have the wrong "mind-set" for self...
I really like my XD 40 and found it to be extremely accurate with paper targets. The kick is quite snappy but the gun is a good fit for my hand. I enjoy mine, hope you do too!
Thanks for all the replies. Good information, and I appreciate it all. Shooting into the ground would probably be the simplest thing to do; but all the other suggestions are good to keep in mind too.
I am not against shooting/killing the coyotes; but this afternoon the coyotes were between...
Well I know that this is a pretty dumb question, but, I've just got to ask it anyway. What happens when you shoot (a gun) up into the air? As in, to scare off dogs or coyotes sniffing around way too close to our goats and chickens. Haven't seen them come this close before today; would prefer...
DIY carwashes can indeed be dangerous places. A friend of mine's brother was shot and killed at one a few years back; had gone to wash his brand new truck, some other creatures decided they wanted it. They were caught and prosecuted and are in prison but he is dead.
A couple of years ago I...
